Along with that comes online gaming among hotel guests (you can have a PC installed - laptop for the suites - for extra charge), with online games installed, where hotel guests connect to a hotel gaming server (quake server for example), and play among themselves. Of course, downstairs in the game rooms, there will be also computers who can be used for the el-cheapo guests, if they can't afford one in the room, in order to play (price/time of usage). ..... --ArielSimon -- Simon Lockhart | Tel: +44 (0)1737 839676 Internet Engineering Manager | Fax: +44 (0)1737 839516 BBC Internet Services | Email: Simon.Lockhart () bbc co uk Kingswood Warren,Tadworth,Surrey,UK| URL: http://support.bbc.co.uk/-- Ariel Biener e-mail: ariel () post tau ac il PGP(6.5.8) public key http://www.tau.ac.il/~ariel/pgp.html
